How to get health insurance
It made me
um...insured
 "Extremely boring, but worth it."
How I did it: Since I work as a freelancer I was able to get insurance through the Freelancer's Union group plan. Lessons & tips: I didn't have to go through all the added stuff that individual insurers go through, so I'm not much help in the tips and lessons department. But if you are self-employed or a freelancer check out the Freelancers Union's plans to see if those would work for you. Resources: www.freelancersunion.org |

How I did it: In the end, I just went out and bought health insurance. Why didn't I do that from the start? Well, I was planning on getting insurance through the union starting in January-ish, but hopefully I wont have this job anymore in January.

How I did it: I've decided to cross this off because I am a student in Europe and am entitled to national insurance throughout the duration of my studies. So, I felt like in that way I have acheived this goal. I know i will have to add this again when I leave, but at least I will have health insurance for a while now! So how did I do it? I became a student in Europe. Read how I did it…

I've been offered...

But due to our income I didn’t take it. We aren’t struggling with the bills, but I don’t want to make a reason to start.
But I do need it.
We both do.
Next time they offer it, I’m going to take it.
Just the other day I had a migraine for four days straight.
Couldn’t go the hospital, that was the pits.
Maybe?

So, now that I’ve had my hours cut back, I’m making less money. And this means I might be able to qualify for HealthyNY. But we’ll have to see. To be continued…
It's pretty easy, actually

This will probably be the first goal I accomplish.
Here’s a preemptive lesson. Don’t be afraid to go see a doctor even if you don’t have insurance. Sometimes healthcare providers have a sliding-scale or patient assistance program for the uninsured, or you can get prescriptions on the cheap through the mail through their associated pharmacies. See what your options are.

I can’t get insurance through my job and realistically speaking, I cannot afford health insurance at full cost. Apparently, though I make too much money to qualify for low-cost insurance. I hate the whole stupid system. It’s like if you don’t have kids, you can’t get help!
I can get it at work..
